Kony 2012

[speeds]

I was at Tualatin HS today for Opening Day ceremonies for the softball/baseball season.

Kony 2012 crap was painted all over the sidewalk and a few walls in graffiti.

Nobody with me knew what it was. I said it's the latest Free Tibet thing for young people, except this one includes sending US troops to Africa to stop some guy name Kony who was big in 2003 from making kids fight. Everybody pretty much laughed, shook their heads, and said "kids". The only thing not funny was the vandalism.

Then we went down to the soda shop for an egg cream.

It's not healthy to have such old friends. Ditch those losers and get some younger ones.

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that the vandals couldn't point out Uganda on a map.

Or even Vermont.

And it's a cherry soda, not egg cream, you whippersnapper!

There are lots of outlets that debunk the entire Kony thing. As a fence-riding-no-decision-making-white boy that lives in a forever blue state even though I've historically leaned to the right - this Kony thing seems very contrived and odd.
